If you are considering a trip to Universal Orlando, you may be wondering what it’s like to visit during COVID. Recently, my family was able to visit Universal to celebrate my daughter’s graduation and I want to share with you my firsthand experience of what it’s like with the new changes.

Every time I mention Universal Orlando to a friend or a client, the first thing they say is, “I really want to see the Harry Potter attractions!” As a very Muggle-like Muggle, I had never read any of the Harry Potter books or seen any of the movies until recently.

A month and a half ago during dinner, my 15 year old expressed that she wanted a sweet 16 birthday party. The first thing that popped into my head, even before she finished her request, was an episode of “MTV's My Sweet 16.” Oh no... My stomach began to churn with dread as I envisioned teens attempting to behave older than 16 and my husband and I playing security. To my surprise and utter relief, we dodged a bullet when I heard the magical phrase, "I want the party to be Harry Potter themed." In the words of Napoleon Dynamite, [...]
